Direct DID |
DID (Direct Inward Dialing) is an emerging technology that has created new business opportunities for service providers. With the IPsmarx Direct DID Solution calls forward the DID directly to the IPsmarx Softswitch. The Softswitch initiates a PSTN based call and directs the call to PSTN or GSM based destinations, without routing through an IP phone. The calls are placed using a landline phone eliminating the need for an IP phone or internet access. Additionally, service providers can provide international calls at local rates. For more information please click here. |
DID2IP Module |
DID2IP takes a real phone number (Landline or Cell phone) from a DID provider and forwards the calls to a client that has an IP Phone. More than one DID number can be assigned to a client. This service can be provided as a free or chargeable service. This feature also works with other add-on features such as the Class 5 Server. |
Spanish Platform |
IPsmarx Platform supports Spanish language for User Interface, End user Portal, IVR, Voicemail and E-store. |
Automatic User Generation |
This module will allow service providers to generate several customers very easily. The system will generate random username and passwords for each client. Each batch can also be associated with a specific group. This feature is very helpful tool helping clients who have a large customer base save time. |
Redundancy |
Redundancy is a key component in a fully-featured Softswitch. The Softswitch must continue functioning at full capacity in the event the primary Softswitch is rendered unavailable. In the event of a natural disaster, the importance of individual, business and government communications become more critical as the chance of failure to the communications infrastructure increases.
IPsmarx has created a solution to this problem by deploying an intelligent fully-redundant Class 5 Softswitch offering continuous replication for unmatched resiliency and reliability without user intervention. For more information please click here. |
Least Cost Routing |
By taking advantage of automatic Least Cost Routing, carriers can ensure that their calls are always being routed to the lowest cost provider. The IPsmarx solution will automatically scan imported rate tables each time a call is attempted and route the call to the provider with the lowest cost for that specific destination. Advanced carrier selection allows the administrator to select the carriers to be used by the LCR feature. |
Invoicing |
With this flexible invoicing module, carriers can send bills manually or automatically, define the frequency of each bill, and export the invoice to PDF format, Microsoft Excel, or Microsoft Word. The IPsmarx invoice formatting tool allows adminstrators to customize the format of their invoices and with unified invoicing, all services that are offered through the IPsmarx platform can be listed on one invoice.
|
Advanced RTP Management |
With this add-on feature, carriers can choose to enable or disable RTP proxy. If the RTP proxy feature is disabled, the RTP stream will be sent directly from the client side to the end end-point carrier. In this case IPsmarx softswitch is not involved in RTP transmission, thus sending the RTP to a separate server. If distributed architecture is used, RTP traffic can be sent to a separate RTP proxy server. By taking advantage of this feature, carriers may reduce the load on their hardware.

Package Billing |
With this feature, carriers can create monthly calling plans and define unlimited minutes or a determined amount of free minutes to specific pre-defined destinations. For example, a carrier may offer a flat fee for a specific number of ports per month.
|
Auto Recharge |
Carriers can offer hassle-free account management to their customers with the auto-recharge feature. The IPsmarx solution will automatically recharge the account when the balance reaches a pre-defined amount. This feature is only availabe in the United States using Authorize.net merchant account.

Using the E-store, carriers can offer a fully automated sign up and online payment process for their customers as well as a user portal with access to payment history, IP address management, CDR, and usage history. Coupon codes and promotional offers can also be managed through the E-store.
|
Reseller Management |
With the IPsmarx Unified Reseller Management modules, Administrators can sign up resellers to promote any of their VoIP services. Administrators can define their own reseller program and set permissions, such as sharing or limiting access to the different services they can offer, re-assigning customers to different resellers and allowing resellers to add funds to customers' accounts. There are four types of reseller modules available within the IPsmarx platform, allowing Administrators the flexibility to define their own unique reseller program.
Usage Based Reseller Module
A Usage Based Reseller will get compensated through a commission structure set up by the Administrator. This commission can be based on a percentage or a flat rate or both and the commission can be based on long distance calls as they are placed or at the end of the monthly bill. The Usage Based reseller will be able to login to their own interface to manage their customer accounts, but they can only use the service selling rates assigned to them by the Administrator when registering a new account. Reports like CDR, Commission and Balance report can be also available to them if the Administrator has allowed it. If the Administrator allows it, resellers will be able to see and manage each other’s customer accounts. Resellers can also sign up their own subagents.
Payment Based Reseller Module
A Payment Based Reseller will receive compensation through commission set up by the Administrator. This commission can be based on a percentage or a flat rate or both and will be applied as soon as the reseller’s customers add money to their account balance. The Payment Based Reseller will be able to login to their own interface to manage their customer accounts; they can only use the service selling rates assigned to them by the Administrator when registering a new account. Reports like CDR, Commission and Balance report can be also available to them if the Administrator has allowed it. If Administrator allows it, his resellers will be able to see and manage each other’s customers’ accounts. Resellers can also sign up their own subagents.
White Label Reseller Module
Using this module, Rate Based Resellers (white label resellers) have the flexibility to define selling rates for their customers and agents, and their agents are able to define their own selling rates for their customers. This module allows the reseller to set up their own selling rates based on predefined buying rates. The Rate Based Reseller will be able to login to their own interface to manage their customer accounts and create their own service selling rates. Reports, such as CDR, ASR, ACD and Customer Report are also available to them as well as invoicing (as long as the Administrator has this feature enabled). This type of reseller traditionally has their own brand, company name, and logo that is displayed on their own website.
Pinless Reseller Module
The Pinless Reseller module is available to compliment the Payment Based Reseller module. Resellers can utilize this module to sign up customer accounts or recharge customer’s account balance by just retrieving a customer’s phone number and the number they registered will be automatically assigned to the pinless feature. The pinless reseller module offers the advantage of faster registration for when resellers are located in a fast paced customer service environment, such as a convenience or grocery store. The Administrator will have access to the Pinless recharge report for details about total amount recharged per pinless reseller, profit and other information.
|
H323 Support Module |
For end point carriers who support H323 only, this module can be added to the softswitch to allow interconnection. The correct port for each protocol can be assigned automatically. This can also be changed manually to any port requested by the end point carrier. Fast start capability is another benefit of this feature. SIP and H323 protocol conversion is supported as well.

Hunt-Stop & Route Suspension |
| Our reliable Hunt-Stop feature offers peace of mind for carriers that have multiple providers established. For example, if a carrier has three providers, but one provider’s buying rates are more expensive than the selling price for certain destinations, the IPsmarx system can be configured to send calls to the first two carriers and then stop to avoid losing funds. Using Route Suspension, carriers can decide to stop sending traffic to a specific route, to avoid high cost or poor quality. |
